عندي تساؤل فبالي ومزاجي اني اكتبه باللغة العربية الفصحى.
لماذا في الآونة الأخيرة انتشر نعت سكان جمهورية ايران الاسلامية بالمجوس مع انهم شعب يشهدون بأن لا اله الا الله وأن محمدا رسول الله؟
نحن نعلم أن بلاد فارس قبل أن تفتح كانت تدين بالمجوسية ولكن الديانة المجوسية اندثرت بعد دخول بلاد فارس بالاسلام. يعني بالعامي اذا هالناس تعاير الايرانيين بالمجوسية لي يومك هذا فمن حقهم يعايرون سكان جزيرة العرب بالوثنية اذا بتمشون بهالمنطق السخيف.
واللي اسخف انتشار مقولة "المد الصفوي المجوسي". حلو المجوسية وعرفناها، وندري ان الديانة المجوسية اندثرت ومادري شلون بيصيرلها مد. الحين بنعرف شنو اهي الصفوية.
لما تدش موقع وكيبيديا وتبحث عن الصفيون راح يطلعلك هالجواب:
الصفويون هم آل صفويان: سلالة من الشاهات حكمت في بلاد فارس (إيران) سنوات 1501-1785 م المقر:تبريز: حتى 1548 م، قزوين: 1548-1598 م، أصفهان: منذ 1598 م.
أسس الشيخ صفي الدين الأردبيلي (1252-1334م) طريقته الصوفية في أردبيل (أذربيجان) سنة 1300 م. أصبحت أردبيل عاصمة دينية ثم سياسية لأتباعه (مع تحولها إلى حركة سياسية). تحول أبناء هذه الطائفة منذ منتصف القرن الـ15 م إلى المذهب الشيعي. نجح الصفويون في الوصول إلى الحكم (على بعض المناطق) أثناء زعامة جنيد (1447-1450 م) ثم حيدر (1460-1488 م)، والذين استطاعا إنشاء تنظيم سياسي وتكوين وحدات خاصة من الجيش، أو القزلباش (القزل باش أو الرؤوس الحمراء نسبة إلى التاج أو العمامة الحمراء التي يرتديها أتباع الطريقة الصفوية، وتربط العمامة بإثني عشرة لفة تلميحا للأئمة الإثنى عشر).
لاحظو ان الصفوية حقبة من امبراطورية فارس انتهت قبل ٢٢٦ عام وانهم يدينون بالدين الاسلامي.
انا اللي بيوقف مخي شلون في مد "صفوي مجوسي" ولا اكو مجوسية ولا اكو سلالة صفوية بزمنا هذا؟!!!!!
فعلا جذب جذب ليما اتصدق جذبتك والحمقى وراك يصدقونك.
يعني لما انا اقول مثلا مد وثني ابرهي بتصدق ان في وثنية وسلالة ابرهه ليلحين تحكم مثلا؟
أبي احمق من جذي بعد.

And then the fight started
1. When I got home last night, my wife demanded that I take her someplace expensive.... So, I took her to a gas station.....
And then the fight started....
2. My wife and I are watching "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" while we were in bed. I turned to her and said, "Do you want to have sex?" "No," she answered. I then said, "Is that your final answer?" She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying, "Yes." So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend."
And then the fight started....
3. After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later. The woman said, "Unbutton your shirt". So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair.
She said, "That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me". And she processed my Social Security application. When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office. She said, "You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten Disability, too".
And then the fight started.....
4. Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my lunch, grabbed the dog, and slipped quietly into the garage. I hooked up the boat up to the truck, and proceeded to back out into a torrential downpour. The wind was blowing 50 mph, so I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather would be bad all day. I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. I cuddled up to my wife's back, now with a different anticipation, and whispered, "The weather out there is terrible."
My loving wife of 10 years replied, "Can you believe my stupid husband is out fishing in that?"
And then the fight started ...
5. My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table. My wife asked, "Do you know her?"
"Yes," I sighed, "She's my old girlfriend. I understand she took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she hasn't been sober since."
"My God!" says my wife, "Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?"
And then the fight started.....
6. I rear-ended a car this morning. So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other driver got out of his car. You know how sometimes you just get so stressed and little things just seem funny? Yeah, well I couldn't believe it.... He was a DWARF!!!
He stormed over to my car, looked up at me, and shouted, "I AM NOT HAPPY!!!"
So, I looked down at him and said, "Well, then which one are you?"
And then the fight started.....
7. I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason, took my order first. "I'll have the strip steak, medium rare, please." He said, "Aren't you worried about the mad cow?"
"Nah, she can order for herself."
And then the fight started.....
8. A woman is standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror. She is not happy with what she sees and says to her husband, "I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment."
The husband replies, "Your eyesight's darn near perfect."
And then the fight started.....

Today in History, 2nd of March
Spotlight:
Was King Kong just a giant gorilla? Carl Denham, the fictional film director in the original version of King Kong, described the creature as "neither beast nor man." In ads, RKO called him a "prehistoric type of ape." King Kong looked like a gorilla, often walked upright and had a kind of human intelligence. Though he was supposed to stand at about 50 feet (15 1/4 meters) tall, Kong's height varied in the film, depending on the models and camera angles used. The film went through several title changes before settling on "King Kong," including "The Beast," "The Ape," "The Eighth Wonder" and "Kong." The original movie, starring Fay Wray as the blonde actress Kong falls in love with, had its world premiere at Radio City Music Hall in New York City on March 2, 1933.

Kissing my 20s goodbye
Two days ago I celebrated my 29th birthday. It was one of my best birthdays ever. I was camping and my wife surprised me with a delecious chicken shaped cake.
Lately I've been thinking how funny that people get excited on their birthdays forgetting that they have just lost another year of their life's credit.
On this particular birthday I was a little bit sad that I'm living the last year of my 20s. When I hit 30, it's all going to be downhill thereafter.
I'm going to recap the good and bad of my favorite decade of my life year by year.
